More Forgiving When Drunk
I never asked you for anything
n’ you never asked for it back
found unknowing when the going was green
I still have problems with that
Venus, Apollo, your good self and I
drink too much and then some
why must the bottle ever leave me dry?
more forgiving when drunk
but no, mercy me, oh my…
damned if I do, so I probably won’t
Oh my God, more forgiving when drunk
Oh my God, more forgiving when drunk
not enough for us to rest assured
we make do with what we have
no witless wonder here is keeping score
and things didn't turn out too bad
Venus, Apollo, your good self and I
don’t like what we’ve become
left for lost, problems are magnified
the Gods, more forgiving when drunk
but no, mercy me, oh my
I'm falling into a deep blue shade of funk
Oh my God, more forgiving when drunk
I thought they’d keep you from the frey
I'm so sorry
for being so easy
and falling in love
with the first one to please me
Oh my God, more forgiving when drunk
Oh my God, more forgiving when drunk
Oh my God, more forgiving
Oh my God
